Omega Yeast Irish Ale

$8.99

SKU# OYL005

Probably the most well known strain for producing classic stouts, this is a popular choice for many dark beers and high gravity beers. Beers fermented in the lower temperature range produce a dry, crisp profile with subtle fruitiness. Fruit and complex esters will increase when fermentation temperatures are above 64°F.

Have used this a couple times already now and I've really enjoyed the high concentration of yeast and the high attenuation achieved using Omega Yeast. Past two experiences with the Irish red have been positive and resulted in delicious beers with no unpleasant aftertastes or stalling (for high OG)

Brewed a dry Irish stout with outstanding results. Even though they report a high yeast count, I used a starter. I felt like the strength of the yeast and resulting fermentation really contributed to the complexity of my final beer.

BEST ANSWER:I brewed from the pack with it yesterday. Temp in brew house was about 68 and I had the pack out at least 3 hours before I pitched. There was some puff up to the pack but not as much as a wyeast pack.
